Chapter 2740 - 2743: Chen Buyi Takes Action, Elder Zong Dies!

Now there’s still a problem.

Not only did the Third Sect Elder lose, but he also confirmed Ling Xiao’s words from before.

These people falsely accused the Sect Master, Chen Buyi, saying he was biased and unfair.

Now it seems, it was entirely baseless, a load of nonsense.

In the Demon Dragon Sect, this is a capital offense.

Not just in the Demon Dragon Sect, even in the Chen Royal Family, this would be a capital offense.

Ling Xiao smiled and looked at Chen Buyi, saying: "Sect Master, how you want to handle these people is up to you. Disciple won’t intrude."

After all, he was just Chen Buyi’s disciple.

Chen Buyi, as the Demon Dragon Sect Leader, certainly has his own considerations.

Whether to kill or spare, this time, Chen Buyi holds the moral and righteous high ground.

It’s clear that all three Sect Elders have been unjust and unrighteous.

Chen Buyi, however, knew how to handle things, deciding long ago who should be killed and who spared.

With his actions, more than twenty people were killed on the spot.

These twenty plus were die-hard followers of the three Sect Elders, having offended him countless times.

In the past, he couldn’t find the right reason; now that the reason has come, he won’t show mercy.

Otherwise, people might really think he’s just a figurehead as the Demon Dragon Sect Leader.

As for the remaining sixty or seventy people, Chen Buyi did not execute them.

Instead, he said indifferently: "This wrongdoing originated from the Third Sect Elder and their die-hards who were causing trouble.

Although you were blindly following, your crime is not punishable by death.

This time I spare your life from the death penalty, but if you repeat such offenses in the future, you will be executed without mercy!"

He shifted all the blame to the Third Sect Elder and their diehards, making these people feel his magnanimity as the Sect Master, all kneeling to express their gratitude.

Then they all retreated.

From now on, their impression of the Third Sect Elder might plummet to freezing point.

Naturally, they will have greater reverence for Chen Buyi as the Sect Master.

Not only because Chen Buyi is strong, but also because he spared their lives.

"Now, it’s your turn, three of you!

You were once pillars of the Demon Dragon Sect. Today you disrespect the Sect Master. What punishment do you deserve?"

Chen Buyi coldly eyed the three Sect Elders and asked.

"I admit my guilt. It’s my insufficient discipline that led the Third brother to impulsively offend the Sect Master."

The First Elder of the Sect was indeed an old schemer, despite being a woman, her wit was impeccable.

Realizing that the situation has turned and resisting further would serve no purpose.

He didn’t want to have an open confrontation with Chen Buyi on the spot.

Because in that case, Chen Buyi alone could take the lives of all three.

"You made the right call. Fine, considering your contributions to the Demon Dragon Sect, I won’t pursue today’s matters further.

But there is a limit to this leniency, if such matters occur again in the future, no mercy will be granted!"

Chen Buyi coldly stated: "However, the death penalty can be waived, but the living punishment cannot be avoided!

The Third Sect Elder, aged and weak, proved no match for my closed-door disciple, Ling Xiao’s opponent, and during the contest, disregarded the dignity of the Demon Dragon Sect and attempted to kill Ling Xiao.

The Second Sect Elder was even more shameless, attempting to sneak attack Ling Xiao.

These two have no qualification to continue serving as Elders in the Demon Dragon Sect. Do you concur?"

The First Sect Elder looked extremely embarrassed.

She wanted to rebel just like that, but she knew very well without the support of the Deputy Sect Masters, the three of them couldn’t possibly confront Chen Buyi.

So she could only accept.

"No, I don’t concur!"

The First Sect Elder accepted reality.

Yet the Third Sect Elder refused to yield.

He struggled to stand up, roaring: "Sect Master, Ling Xiao’s combat capability is not as strong as you all perceive, this kid is merely pretending to be weak to eat a tiger, making the subordinate complacent.

I’m not reconciled by the loss!

Please grant me seven days, after which I will recover and definitely defeat him."

Upon hearing this, the First Sect Elder’s face turned pale.

She knew the Third Sect Elder was doomed.

If you acknowledge reality, even if not an elder, you are still an Elder, enjoying a status more noble than ordinary disciples.

In due course, once the rule of Chen Buyi is overthrown, can’t you then do as you wish?

Yet you insist on being insubordinate.

Do you want to prove Ling Xiao is inferior to you?

Is it aimed at Ling Xiao?

That’s aimed at Sect Master Chen Buyi!

Isn’t this seeking your own doom!

"Master, you are benevolent, wishing to spare that old thing’s life, but others are demanding your life."

Ling Xiao smiled faintly: "Would you like disciple to serve you by eliminating this old creature?"

"No need!"

Chen Buyi coldly said, and as soon as the words fell, the Third Sect Elder’s head was severed by him.

He lifted the Third Sect Elder’s head high, saying coldly: "If I don’t take action, do you really think I’m afraid of trouble?

Killing you is like slaughtering chickens and dogs!"

"Third one!"

The Second Sect Elder and First Sect Elder witnessed this scene, their eyes wide with fury.

They hadn’t expected Chen Buyi to take action.

This time, Chen Buyi brought Ling Xiao back, and it seemed his character completely changed.

Actually, they didn’t realize that previously, Chen Buyi was tolerant because he lacked a good successor; it was better to give away the Sect Master position.

After all, Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ and Xiao Mu Yu were both strong.

But this time it was different; with Ling Xiao, Chen Buyi had a target.

He would never be as tolerant as before.

"Are you dissatisfied as well?"

Chen Buyi threw the Third Sect Elder’s head to the side, finally revealing the ruthless might of the Demon Sect Leader.

The First Sect Elder lowered her head, not daring to speak.

The Second Sect Elder gritted his teeth, but could only hold back.

Neither wanted to become a victim of Chen Buyi’s violent anger.

"Brother, your actions this time are a bit excessive, aren’t they? There’s no need for this over a mere Ling Xiao."

Just then, a voice with hidden thorns rang out.

The tone was soft, utterly lacking in masculinity, yet the words were poisonous.

"Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ!"

Chen Buyi stared intently at this man slowly approaching him.

Elegant and of outstanding appearance.

Undoubtedly one of the top ten handsome men in the Chen Dynasty.

This was his sworn brother.

The man who took his beloved woman away.

"Obsessively ambiguous, neither masculine nor feminine! Although a brother, he stabs in the back, snatches love!

What qualifications does someone like you have to criticize the Sect Master?"

Chen Buyi seemed somewhat inferior in front of Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ.

After all, Xiao Mu Yu had been on the brink of marriage with him, pledging for life.

Yet suddenly turned to Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ’s embrace.

This man made Chen Buyi always feel in terms of masculine charm, he lost to Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ.

In front of this Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ, always somewhat unable to hold his head high.

So upon seeing Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ approaching, Chen Buyi didn’t speak.

Ling Xiao, however, couldn’t restrain himself and cursed.

"How dare you! You, a mere mid-level disciple, dare insult the Deputy Sect Master?"

The Second Sect Elder rebuked.

Perhaps seeing Yun Zhonɡ Fenɡ arrive, the Second Sect Elder felt he had backing, and thus grew bolder.

"You are the audacious one! He is merely a Deputy Sect Master, yet dare criticize the dignified Sect Master!

Moreover, the heavy crimes of falsely accusing the Sect Master are confirmed, and yet he dares say the Sect Master acted excessively.

I truly suspect, who is the true master of the Demon Dragon Sect?"

Ling Xiao glared at the Second Sect Elder, reprimanding loudly.
